developing countries to learn.It is a tool which holds the ability to change the lives of the poor，as it provides a means of learning and communicating.Educational programs must break away from old systems.New companies such as One Laptop(笔记本电脑) Per Child (OLPC)，an organization founded by MIT Professor Nicholas Negroponte have been active in solving the worlds education problem.The Internet has changed the world，allowing educational services to help with the global fight against poverty.Khan Academy is one such service.Like OLPC，it is an organization founded by Harvard Business School graduate Salman Khan with the task of “providing a worldclass education to anyone，anywhere.”The education offered includes a large number of mathrelated topics.The GMAT Pill Review is another company that trains MBA candidates(应考人) worldwide to prepare for the GMAT exam on both the Quant and Verbal section.Founded by Stanford graduate Zeke Lee，the company offers services which are priced at about 75% less than other similar programs.It allows students from developing countries who might not be able to afford similar courses to have access to these services.Whether paid or free these services provide educational opportunities to those who would never have had the chance in the past.As a result of the technology revolution(革新)，business schools may see more students from different corners of the world.Because of the Internet，people in developing nations have access to better and more affordable educational opportunities.More and more people will try to improve their lives through educational opportunities outside of their homelandan idea usually uncommon in developing countries.1According to the text，technology can .Aimprove peoples reading abilityBsolve the problems facing

learning and communicating.”可知，由于科技提供学习和交流的方法，所以它是能够改变穷人命运的工具。2We can learn from the text that Khan Academy aims to .Ahelp the poor pay for good coursesBprovide every child with a computerChelp train MBA candidatesDmake everyone receive good education答案D解析细节理解题。根据第三段第三句“Like OLPC，it is an organization founded by Harvard Business School graduate Salman Khan with the task of providing a worldclass education to anyone，anywhere.”可知，该组织的目的是使每一个人都得到世界一流的教育。3Which of the following about GMAT Pill Review is TRUE?AIt only accepts students from developing countries.BIt was started by Professor Nicholas Negroponte.CIt charges students about 25 percent of other similar programs.DThe education it offers includes a lot of mathrelated topics.答案C解析细节理解题。根据第四段第一句可知，GMAT Pill Review在全世界范围内招生，A项错误；由第四段第二句可知，它由Zeke Lee创办，学费比其他同样的学校便宜75%，因此B项错误，C项正确；D选项是叙述Khan Academy的，因此错误。4In the past，people in developing countries .Ahad no educational opportunities in their homelandBseldom

try to improve their lives through educational opportunities outside of their homelandan idea usually uncommon in developing countries.”可知，现在越来越多的人通过本国之外的教育机会来改善他们的生活，这一点在过去的发展中国家是不常见的。由此可以推断出，过去发展中国家的人们很少想到通过接受国外的教育来改变自己的命运。BChina，endowed with rich agricultural resources，has a long history of farming.The traditional
